What question(s) do you have?
Chelsea
A couple of people are interviewed about the murder of Emmit Till and the two men who killed should be guilty. The two black men interviewed did not choose a side they said "I don't know" which seems surprising that they don't have a opinion. Some white people said there was not enough evidence. One woman, black, said that she knew that the men would be acquitted for the crime and was upset to be right in that guess.
Was it common for blacks to be reluctant to speak about civil rights?
